Google announces Gemini 4 and says it’s so capable that only ‘trusted cyber defenders’ can have it right now

Google has released its Gemini 4 Argon AI model, offering advanced capabilities in complex workflows, but access is restricted to 'trusted cyber defenders' due to its capabilities in cybersecurity defense. The model is designed for tasks such as software engineering, enterprise knowledge work, and legal and finance applications. Google's chief AI architect, Koray Kavukcuoglu, stated that the model provides 'frontier performance' in these areas. The company has not yet announced when it will make the model more widely available.
